Reviewer: Ian Munro,
Camera is excellent quality
Really designed well
Picture quality is great on video and stills
Cons: short battery life
But make sure to get a very large memory card, your gonna need it at 1080p resolution
Overall, wipes the floor of the competition!

Reviewer: Fraser Carmichael,
I started diving in 1972 took my first open water in Georgan Bay in Ontario Canada ,it was May 24th the water temp was 34 F still some ice in the Bay.Since then I have had no experence with taking pictures underwater. This will all change now that I have a brand new Gopro Here 3 Silver camera.I will be going to Roatan for two weeks of diving (my 5th trip). I have been testing the camera around my home and nabourhood both still and video shots.When I put the video and shots up on my 47" flat screen I was blown away what defination and clarity. I am now looking forward even more to my Roatan trip.

Questions and Answers for Gopro HERO 3 Silver Edition High Definition Video and Underwater Camera:
Ilan:
Is Gopro HERO 3 Silver built for SCUBA diving - to what depth ?
Hi!
How long will this take to ship to Singapore, and how much will i be charged for shipping?
Bill (Certified Scuba Instructor at Scuba.com)
:
You can place the order on the website. Using Amazon Checkout is the easiest way to process international orders. The shipping charge will be listed when you proceed to checkout and prior to submitting the order. Typically 2 week delivery from the day the order processes.
Gus:
The details on the web site do not answer this question: Does the included housing come with the flat glass lens for diving?
Bill (Certified Scuba Instructor at Scuba.com)
:
This is the standard housing and would need the dive housing for better underwater video.
taytay:
Hi .. I wanted to ask what is the difference between gray and white models and black ..
What is the price for shipment to Israel ..
Bob (Certified Scuba Instructor at Scuba.com)
:
The best method of calculating rates would be to enter the order using our online shopping cart and use the Amazon Checkout method of checking out. Amazon will verify all billing and shipping information and display your shipping costs. Be advised these costs do not reflect any additional Duty or Tax imposed by your country due to importation of the equipment. Any extra fees over those displayed are the responsibility of the customer. I do not have info on the White. The difference between the Silver and Black are the Black comes with the Wifi Remote that the Silver does not and the Black has 1 more MP of definition.

We would want this almost exclusively for underwater. How close will it focus? What is ballpark dept of field? Is it sharp enough to show detail on small fishes? Thanks!

How does the Gopro Hero 3 compare with a Sealife DC1200?
Darrick (Certified Scuba Instructor at Scuba.com)
:
Hello Jimmy, the Gopro is a little more compact then the DC 1200. With the Gopro does more video then stills. You have to cut and paste the picture from the video. But the DC 1200 is no longer made by the manufacture the new version is the DC 1400.

Is this camera usable as a web cam with a laptop so I can write it off as a business expense?
Bill (Certified Scuba Instructor at Scuba.com)
:
Do not know if this can be configured as web-cam, you might want to contact Gopro directly. http://gopro.com/support/
juan:
hey i was wondering which housing do you need for diving ? also how is the sound quality under water ? finally i wanted to know which of the GoPros would be better too buy.
Bill (Certified Scuba Instructor at Scuba.com)
:
All the Gopro Housing are rated for diving. They do not have a recording feature when used underwater. The Black Edition has been the most popular.
